Here in Denmark we have had these camera-vans for a while now. (a van with black tinted windows with a laser and a camera pointing out the back, parked road-side) -They're EVERYWHERE!

If you get caught doing 51 km/h in 50 km/h zone, you get a $75 ticket. -There's NO slack!
Worst thing is that the owner of the vehicle can be forced by law to give up the name of the driver. -Basically they make you rat out your own family or friends.. That really sux!

The thing is.. These vans (and the threat of not knowing where they are) are supposed to increase the safety of traffic by making people drive slower. But what happens is, that whenever a driver see a van parked road-side, he/she slams the brakes a creates a dangerous situation. That's not very cool..
